You know as I finish up getting the Camaro ready to go racing I thought I
would share how I do this.... not really complicated but worth mentioning I
think....
There are so many little details to check that I simply can't remember them
all at one time.... so I have this check list Doug Odom sent me a while back
and I go through it.... and then I have kinda my own way of starting at the
back of the car and working forward....
With a Pad of paper I jot down notes as I think of them.... example's might
be .... Nitrous lines.... Fuel.... Battery cables... so on and so forth...
then I check them off or line through them as I finish each task.... also
make a copy to take to work with me to think it through so I have a plan
when I get home...
My Goal is to do ALL of the work at Home and have the car ready to race as
it comes out of the trailer... I have more tools and ability at home then I
do at the Track so why not take advantage of the facilities....that and it's
so easy to become distracted by visitors and so on that things just don't
get checked even with the best of intentions....
I think the this is one of my favorite parts about racing.... just the
futsing with the little stuff that it takes to have a FUN weekend....
Just checking the Fluids is a 15 minute task.... but it makes you feel good
to know that Everything is RIGHT and Ready....
Keith ( yeah I know it's boring.... but I have done this about 15 times now
and I still enjoy it each and every time.... Can't assume anything is Right
just cause it was before )
